You tell me what the voices would be like here, if that thing passed the Senate.

I don’t honestly expect it to, but you never know. As you say, and I said earlier, all this is doing is giving the plan more stature.

By doing that it also gives a pure grade A nut-job AOC more stature.

She’ll get credit from the University lemmings, and the media will play up how she presented vitally important legislation within months of gaining her seat.

This will play very well when she runs for president. Folks, this isn’t going away.

Thanks fwdude. We’re on the same page.

“Damn. That is almost balls.”

Almost. We’ll see if he actually does it.

All excellent points. I can’t wrap my brain around how stupid McConnell is after his long career in the Senate.

How about a Sense of the Senate resolution offer McCabe exile with AOC on Vieques, and then a bill to reopen Navy proving ground on Vieques.

I think folks are of the opinion it would be rubbing this in the Leftist’s noses, putting them on the spot.

You simply can’t put a Leftist on the spot. Look at what all has transpired. Is anyone acting as if they’ve done anything wrong? Have there been profuse or even timid apologies?

At any rate, that’s what I see, in addition to what I’ve already stated.

I agree: this will encourage Steyer, et al., to go after their enemies in the Democrat party who are not sufficiently Stalinist in their outlook.

“All the dems will all vote no. Better to keep bashing them and make them distance themselves without the vote”

If they do, Cortez is dead meat.

It’s a win-win, relax. It’s also why Schumer’s head exploded when he heard.
